Any news on moving the flag? Maybe it would make sense to drop it in the mail to someone who can get it on the road again. Ed

Just heard from Shuss, looks like next weekend, end of the month he will meet Toolmaker. Hopefully it will then be in Portland.
ED, are you going to the 4 corners rally? :cheer:

That's the plan. It looks like I will have it Friday.
I live near Portland, Oregon and my rider is a '76 KZ900 I bought new. I'm also in the process of restoring another one and a '73 Z1.

I just talked to Schuss up in Seattle and it looks like another 2 weeks at least till a meet with Toolmaker Might be possible. :whistle:
Opinions from the Members on if your all happy with it staying in Seattle longer? or would the Majority like to see some progress?
I have already stated that I would take it back again and make it down to Slayer61. B)

I say move it along if at all possible. It's been sitting in one spot now since last summer (8 months); I'd suggest that is more than long enough to wait. Ed

Since Labor Day weekend, when my friend Dave and I took it to Seattle, with a leg done by Bill (KZCSI), for a hand off to Schuss.
Schuss has tried, and tried again to get a hand off happening, just no luck. lots of discussion last fall about where it might head next. But it has been with Schuss since labor Day.

Don't blame Schuss for it staying in Seattle for so long. He has made several weekend meet ups to pass the flag. It has been the other rider who for different reasons backed out of those scheduled meets.
The point was to include as many riders as possible who want to take part in the relay. Waiting for people to get involved has made the relay stuck in one spot. I agree with those who want it to move again. Hopefully there Will be a Flag Movement This Weekend. I am waiting to hear back from Schuss as to his schedule for this weekend, and to where he would like to meet, as I Will go get it again, since it seems that it the only way it will start moving again.
Slayer61 is next, down in Lodi CA. Long way away from Bend OR. Hopefully we can meet up somewhere near a half way point. Bill (KZCSI) has said he wants to ride along for the south movement of the Flag. B)
